We need a separate lobby for no-lifers.

Coming into the game as a new player makes you an easy target for people who spend 30 hours a day on this game.

[Bjorn]

This might come as a chock to you, but perhaps you're not meant to play really well and escape every round in the beginning?

[Wilde]

Most players in a session will die. Only a few will survive. Naturally, your survival rate is probably going to be 20% or so. Expect to die a lot, and if you can't handle it you probably should not play a multiplayer PvP game.

[Holy Athena]

THey do.. It's the buy in map that they do.

[Raymond Tracer]

I came into this game expecting to die a lot but it's a bit ridiculous when a player can come in and kill me almost instantly.
You can't get better equipment if you can't make it out.
It's fair if I screw up and die by monster, but when a player comes in with equipment leagues better than mine, runs up to me and destroys me without giving me any time to react, there's something wrong here.

It's Testplay dude.. To test things, even things like this, is the whole sence of this Demo.
Your point is basicly "improve the Game" and correct me if I'm wrong, but for me it looks like, they are trying exactly that.

yes, propably your Headset or Reaction in General.
What do you do in Real Life against a Wolf? you propably run, in the best case scenario, BEFORE he notice you.

[tai lopez]

no lifers are usually people who do not work/school

you can't have this has 70 to 80% in multiplayer video games are composed with them ( gacha mobile games are an exception as you need money )

If you're not confident in your loadout, hide and stealth. There are a lot of items and mechanics that can help you do this. My fave part of today was I was near extract and I heard someone coming...backed into a dark corner, turned out the lights, and when he got in sight, drank invis potion. He backed up into me to ambush a ranger...so I just swung my axe on the back of his head, killing him, and then took out the ranger who missed his shot.

I agree it can be rough learning, but don't give up. It's not that bad and more often than not I find gear isn't a huge factor.

Coming into the game as a new player makes you in every game an easy target for people who spend 30 hours a day in the game, dude.

Get a grip.

[Carog the Fat]

Also focus on levelling your toon as they cannot take away exp and have more perks helps a lot dont sweat the gear at first

Why are you taking fights with people who are geared? If you're alone and ungeared, you should probably not be fighting players but surviving instead.

[DeathbyBubbles]

literally a skill issue, why should you be punished for being good at the game

[VietDong]

Bash your head against the wall until you find enlightenment within the dungeon.

[kiwisoda1010]

Those geared groups don't have the time to play hide and seek with you. They'd rather storm thru everything on their way. You need to learn how to not be on their path.

You just have to be more careful and slower. Hide,let them pass, jump them if they're surrounded by mobs, or just try to run. It'll happen where there's nothing you can do. If someone tells you "git gud" just ignore them. if someone says "just do this" understand that when htey tell you "just do this" it doesn't mean it'll work every time. You're not meant to survive and live in every single run or game. actually, I'd say almost everyone makes it out less than half the time. A majority of people have a lower survival rate.

On top of that, getting killed without any time to react. That's just a game sense issue. You haven't played enough to see an enemy,size up what dmg they can do and what they can do, know whether to run in and spam left click,run/hide, or try to hit back up, manuever repeat. You'll learn as you play more (example last playtest, when I saw a Barb, I knew to not let him hit me not even once. Let him swing then go for a hit then run, or depending on the weapon,know which way to dodge, Just knowledge/game sense that you'll have to learn)

If you need a teammate or 2, hmu and add me we can play some games. I make it pretty easy to play without worry about losing gear or money lmao.

Remember, you go in with free gear every time. and the starter gear is good no cap. Not amazing, but its good for taking out mobs, and attacking players that have slightly better gear than you (if you have the skill/knowledge to or jump them when they're not looking) People complain too much about not making money or not having gear. Just be happy that we actually get starting gear and its not just rubber bullets like in tarkov and the cheapy ammo bullets lmao

[MoodyStarbuck]

If you want a game that holds your hand and has safe spaces..this isn't it
